Treatment in Ayurveda and home remedies for Anal fistula
Fistula is an abnormal passage from
anal canal to outer skin. It can be very very painful in severe conditions. It’s
very important to maintain the hygiene of the fistula and the adjoining area. There
are certain ayurvedic herbs and natural remedies which can be very useful to
heal the fistula and correct the anomaly. These remedies give instant results
which can be visible within first 2 weeks of usage.
Role of High Fiber Diet in treatment of Anal fistula-
High fiber diet has a big
role to play in treatment of anal fistula, piles and fissures. The constipation
puts a lot of burden in lower anal canal leading to its stretching, painful defecation
and swelling. This leads to more abscess formation, stiffness, redness and
aggravation of pain. Fruits are rich source of natural fiber. Papaya, Cabbage,
Pears, Apples, Melons, Grapes are all good for relieving constipation. Vegetable
soups are also very important part of diet.
What is Ama and it’s role in
Fistula
“AMA” is the term used in
Ayurveda for endotoxins. The “Ama” are endotoxins formed in the intestines due
to faulty digestion. The low digestive fire leads to formation of fermentation
inside the intestines and that in turn can increase the formation of pus and
mucus. The formation of “Ama” is increased if the food is rich in fast foods,
packaged food, burgers, pizzas, non-veg diet and other heavy greasy items.
Cheese is also not good in this case. Milk and dairy products should also be
avoided.
Sometimes if the abscess is
too much, it may be drained out physically by a surgeon but this does not heal
the fistula completely. Antibiotics are also of temporary help. So Ayurvedic
herbs should be used to heal the fistula completely.
Yes, there are certain Ayurvedic
medicines which work like natural antibiotics. One of the reasons behind the
development of fistula is an improper lifestyle and unhealthy eating. Many
people have a habit of regularly eating food that prepared from flour with lots
of sugar, spices and oil, which are very harmful for your health.
Healthy eating habits are
very important to get rid of this disease permanently. White bread, Pasta,
refined flour should be restricted. Bread with grains is recommended. All
grains are good source of natural fiber. So they are fine.
